So...birthdays mean more now than ever to Luke. It seems like he starts thinking about his birthday right after Christmas is over. He talks about it almost every single day! I remember getting that excited about my birthday when I was his age too, so I try to make it as fun as possible for him.

We have a birthday countdown- so he can have a visual reminder! Also so he isn't constantly asking me "how many more days until my birthday?"

On the last day he brought his lunch before his birthday I wrapped all of his lunch items individually. Fun times! He loved it! I happened to be at the school that day and peeked in on him when he opened his lunch box. He was so surprised.

Instead of a big party this year- we let Luke pick a few friends from class to invite and we would take them anywhere he chose. He wanted to go to Chucke Cheese, so that's what we did! He had Fisher, Noah, Devan, Alex, & Brady.

On his actual birthday- April 13th- the PTA hosted our annual school carnival. It was a lot of fun and we stayed the whole time. A huge party just for my Luke ;)

Above is a group picture of the PTA moms :)

My friend Angie & I worked on the carnival baskets for the silent auction. It was a super busy few weeks leading up to the carnival and a very busy day, but all totally worth it!

Since the move I have been so far behind on my blog. So, trying to play catch up is a bit of a challenge. I wanted to include the pictures I have been taking of him because he is growing so fast!
Here are just a few of my favorites...

First of all... we got the basketball goal up in the new driveway- finally feels like home!

In the above photo the boys ages are as follows

Luke: 6 Brady: 4 Owen: 2 Grffin: 3 months

Even though it seems like he doesn't like his brothers from the above picture he does! He loves them so much and laughs at everything they do.

PawPaw & Grandma Kay took us out to lunch one day in April so they could meet Griffin. We had such a nice time chatting! What a sweet picture!

Caleb & Me

We have been married for 8 years. God has blessed me so much with him. He is the best husband and father I could ever ask for.

Tap Your Toes To This

Me & Owen

Owen is my sweet new baby boy! He is so laid back and easy going. Being the baby of two big brothers can be a little rough at times, but he handles it well and doesn't fuss much about their sweet "love pats". I can't wait to see how his little personality developes.

Me & Luke

Luke is 100% ALL BOY! He loves sports. "Hutball", basketball, & baseball are his favorites. He is very rough! He likes to run- race- ride his scooter- play on his fort- etc. He also has a very sweet side too that I just love!

Me & Brady

Brady is always good for a smile. Don't let that sweet smile fool you though, if he doesn't get his way he will quickly let you know. He's definately a momma's boy too, I like to call him my little shadow.
